RHEL7: How to install a Wekan service.

Presentation

Wekan allows to create Boards, on which Cards can be moved around between a number of Columns. Boards can have many members, allowing for easy collaboration, just add everyone that should be able to work with you on the board to it, and you are good to go! You can assign colored Labels to cards to facilitate grouping and filtering, additionally you can add members to a card, for example to assign a task to someone (source: Wekan wiki).

Installation Procedure

NodeJS Installation

Based on NodeJS, Wekan requires a NodeJS service. However and for the time being, Wekan doesn’t work with the lattest NodeJS versions, so the standard NodeJS installation tutorial can’t be used. The pretty old 0.10.40 version has been tested for this tutorial.
